Beverley Report 13 Feb 2008 06:12

Hello from Canada...
I am trying to find any information on my Paternal Great Grandmother ... Sarah Luck who married George William Marsh around 1870. They had at least nine children that I know of. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bev

Here is their marriage registration from www.freebmd.org.uk .. a free site that you can access yourself


Marriages Sep 1870 (>99%)

LUCK Sarah Northampton 3b 130
Marsh George William Northampton 3b 130



You should buy this certificate, it will tell you how old they were, where they lived, their occupations, and the name sof their fathers.


To order a certificate got to www.gro.gov.uk, click on Ordering Certificates Online, and follow instructions, They will ask you for the GRO reference number .. that's the set of two numbers after Northampton.


Each certificate costs £7, and usually takes 7 to 14 days to get to Canada.
